#bullshit callouts

[spartanlocke]

every time i say tumblr staff (and tumblr itself let's be real) made social media worse by never punishing harassment, allowing people to get comfortable pushing cancel and callout culture so they could harass and dehumanize anyone (especially minorities) they want without ever having to worry about consequences, an attitude they brought with them to other websites like tiktok and twitter after the 2018 porn ban....

This is what I'm talking about. tumblr staff doesn't give a shit if you're stalked and harassed, but if you're a trans woman posting selfies? instant ban.

tumblr staff has NEVER done anything to protect its users, but now they're actively participating in doing the harm.

#jem blogs #tumblr #staff #transphobia #social media #and if all that shit isn't annoying enough i now have to constantly hear about how tumblr Is The Only Good Website Now™ #like no the FUCK it's not #tumblr's been harassing people for fucking ages and now staff is *openly* jumping in on it too #stop trying to revisionize tumblr into your perfect uwu website and acknowledge the bullshit going on right now #and no i'm not saying tumblr invented callout culture obviously the act of digging up dirt on someone to punish them is nothing new #i just say that on the internet? i have pretty good reason to belive tumblr's been doing that longer and more actively than other websites #john green and xkit guy being two of the oldest examples of people being accused of being predators/pedos with no evidence #and having to leave the website to protect themselves

It kinda baffles me that people just... Dont pirate shit anymore

Whenever there's any media im interested in, unless is a videogame (and that's a big unless, i have even pirated Pokemon), my first instinct is to go and research for hours a way to find it for free. In my mind it never crosses the idea to go and pay a big corporation for something i can easily search.

Maybe is because i have grown in a poor country. Maybe is how since i was little I was taught in my school to not fail to the corporations' mindset that they can own you. That there's always a way out of the paywall.

There's no reason to sell your soul to the devil when you can be smarter than him

#babbling australet #capitalism #I guess that mindset has helped me to ser through the bullshit others fail #like callout posts #it taught me to search to learn and to only trust myself #in a world when one click can spread misinformation like a virus #we learned to detect them until we found what we needed #obviously we are not foolproof but it's a start #and sadly something young generations dont know about

[lockandkeyhyena]

So so sorry if you've answered this before [or if you just didn't wanna talk about this] but I noticed your part is absent from the Primadonna Spottedleaf map? Again sorry if this is overstepping bounds but I'm just curious if you knew about that

all good. got kicked for supporting bi lesbians i think. they just said ‘because of the drama’

#which is weird because they supported me previously #gonna say it. #tons of wc creators have no spine. i really tried to understand not wanting to get involved in ‘drama’ #and prioritising your participants #but it got to the point where people who agreed with me would still kick me from their maps to sate the rabid callout culture #anyway. can you tell i’m bitter? i’m very bitter. i put in free labour for so many maps and while it is within a host’s rights to kick #whoever they want. its also within MY rights to be bitter about it #sorry lol. rant over #ignore me #anyway it would be nice if people were this aggressive about the people who raided my servers calling me and my participants racial slurs #but i guess racism just isnt as big of a deal as random bullshit queer infighting #OKAY #SORRY #RANT ACTUALLY OVER NOW #yeen rambles #ask

General reminder to other scrunched up sitters like me. Please do try and sit with your legs out and stretch your hamstrings once in a while if you can.

Maybe now even if you are able and have time

Brought to you by the startling realization I couldn't sit up at a 90° angle again without my legs screaming

And a few nights of wondering what I did to get sore legs turns out I just hadn't stretched

#self care #self care callout #it thows me constantly because i am surprisingly flexible in most ways #except my hamstrings and maybe hips are ridiculously tight like all the time #can i fold my 5 ft 10 self into a locker or under a desk still? yeah mostly. #can i reach behind me at really odd angles and get things with either hand or even my foot? sure #can i sit in an L shape with my legs flat and straight in front of me? absolutely not #my core strength is weirdly sucky too. can i hold weird poses for gremlin reasons? ye #can i do anything useful? no lmao #i guess my one arm has slightly reduced range of motion too still from the break cause i didnt do physio #but its not awful and doesnt hurt nearly as much anymore. i just cant quite do bullshit like i used to

[codgod]

just to clarify over here too i probably am just gonna stop drawing the qslime pinup art in general and stick to my own characters for that kind of thing, just makes my life a whole lot less complicated lol

i’m not gonna delete the old art here though so you can still look at them whenever you want u.u

#.txt #twt bullshit #discourse #just not drawing more 👍 #this isn’t me like. letting the haters get to me or whatever #i’m just like. man yeah it is way less effort to just Not draw something #and i can focus that energy onto art that isn’t gonna get me callout posts on x dot com

[booksandpaperss]

after all the bullshit homophobia and racism in this fandom, stranger things is now obligated to make some meta commentary going after that portion of the fanbase in season 5 and if they don’t I will be genuinely annoyed bc with the themes they have set up already it would be so easy

#there was already some light hearted “do you need to be told everuthing?” callouts w dustin #but it’s not the same #I’m talking actually caling bullshit on all the bigotry #cuz they’re being cowards rn tbh #byler tumblr #elli talks stranger things

So, the problem we have with the DID bunny stuffie is that the rings symbol was made as a general symbol to include ALL plurals, and that is in fact including non-disordered systems, endogenic systems, OSDD systems, and like...just systems, period, and we thought y'all had the fragmented ribbon (<- sorry, can't actually remember the name for this rn)?

Soooo that plus iwrc the creator of that plush also disrespected autistic people so we can't trust then to not be a sysmedicalist.

So like: you accuse us inclusys of stealing your shit and being appropriative but you're allowed to appropriate OUR shit? You get what we're saying?

#this is more of a vent. #if we could track down the stuff we were telling about within ten minutes it would be more of a callout. #as it is we are basing this PURELY off of what we remember so don't take it too seriously. #unless you have the links to the stuff we are talkong about. -_- #then you can give us those but we STG we saw exactly this bullshit yk?

i like to think of tumblr as a garden or a forest. lots of cool bugs, wildlife, plants, and great knowledgeable stuff to a social ecosystem are plentiful here

then there's also the birds that came after the wildfires from where they came from, which feast on the bugs and shit around

they contribute to the ecosystem, to be fair, by providing the soil with nutrients for strong sturdy plants and trees to grow, shade, and obscure the cool bugs from their surface-level pecking, short-sighted vision, and to get them lost in the plants' foliage so that all the creatures - from down-to-earth to outright crazy - can crawl about their day without getting ravaged by their gluttonous beaks searching to feed their ever-growing and unending appetite to fuel their flock built on murderous intent

the same flocks that have so desperately fled during our own wildfires, abandoning the forest without another thought for a false haven promising safety and career growth. and from the charred remains of our abandoned, the ashes had finally allowed nature to heal and thrive...

now only to have them back as they once again cowardly flee their burning homes. not greeted with warm welcomes, but contempt and disdain for their treachery

anywho twitter culture sucks, long live long form social media posts and isopods on timeline \o/

#teh's mews #creative writing #rant #just wanted to write something out #second time this week that another callout bullshit happened #to people moving to tumblr for the first time or minding their own business: #welcome to the forest #to the twitter folks who're refugee'ing and have no intention to learn the culture here: #you will stay in the stocks have tomato thrown at you and smile about it #reddit refugees are welcome #r196

hot take but taking every hearsay or rumor or book in a fictional universe for fact is bad understanding of the world as the story presents it, actually

#li.txt #this is both about dishonored and elder scrolls #propaganda exists! artistic interpretation exists! lie exist! people make shit up! #you cant take anything literally unless youre seeing it for yourself imo #if someone is telling you a story about their life they might omit information or make themselves look better! thats how people work! #or if you hear idk some musicians singing in the streets about an ancient myth from 4k years ago maybe dont take it for fact #this is a direct callout to people shitting on born in the month of darkness #if anything they were trying to make the outsider sound like a pathetic wet cat in need of a warm blanket and food. a poor meow meow #unless stuff is confirmed by the characters themselves Im not gonna believe it fully #the books are also often just. not true. theyre scientific speculation Just Like Real Life #or full on propaganda. just like - you guessed it - real life! #the best example that I can think of is how theres two books on the war of betony island in daggerfall. political!! propaganda!!! #not to mention: people will deceive you on purpose! omit details or full on Lie in your face #like Im sure theres stuff we completely misunderstood cause the one thing we were told about it was by someone bullshitting #like with delilah talking about her tragic backstory. like dont get me wrong I 100% believe that it all happened #but also I doubt she was as pitiful and that the Very Quick Summary was all there is to it #I should probably specify that if youre down to believing absolutely everything when there isnt any other sources thats fine #esp if you want to believe it for the reasons of Oh This Is Cool #like people absolutely eating up the angsty backstory for the outsider (me included cause yes. angst.) #have fun with all that #this is mostly about all the people throwing a temper tantrum online about disliking something about canon #'why do the musicians know the backstory why cant they leave anything vague anymore:/' theyre artists melinda its their job ur doing the sam #unless this was confirmed by the outsider in the books idk I cant find those damn things #if something is Stated by a Character or Written in a Novel that is in the world theres always some doubt #like I genuinely doubt that the events of Young Prince of Tyvia happened the way they do in the books #so like yknow. if you hate stuff so much just. ignore the canon established by literal in-game fiction

sometimes you gotta realize that life is made up of things you don't want to do. and you just gotta acknowledge that and find some way to do the things anyway.. because life will throw every rock and pebble and stone, and you can only dodge them for so long before being buried beneath the rubble of what could have been a good life.. if only you'd taken the effort to catch the rocks and begin building a foundation... and then walls, and then a roof.. better to build a fortress, a home, a life.. sometimes you gotta realize that life is tough. you just gotta be tougher

cw -- Blood

For not being the ones in the wrong they sure do like to keep details out to make me look like the worst person ever. (This is mainly a vent post to get out my frustrations but this can also be considered a part two to me responding to the callout post)

Thinking about making a callout doc for a while huh? So much for just needing a break from me because I make you uncomfortable.

Leaving out that you wanted to leave the friendship

Fully ignoring the fact that I was in a trauma response and communicated this you choose to stay with how you were feeling rather than stop and check on me. Yet you try and spin that I never communicated with you. But it only matters if you're not in the correct headspace to comfort/reassure and not if it is a trigger for us.

As for Y/N they aren't just a outsider to the situation. Jade brought them into it and we had to apologize to them for being dragged in.

Trying to make me look worse by saying that I groomed a 18 year old by putting false information that I groomed him when he was 17. I didn't know 2D when he was 17 and if I did I only knew him as the guy who had false pedophile accusations placed on him. (Who I defended through the whole situation) I only got close to him when he was 18. And while on that train of thought guilt tripping me by using that I was the only adult he knew at the time when it was the exact same thing for me. I didn't actively hang around anyone else other than 2D (18) and Jade (16). Both mine and 2D's familys aren't great, we fueled each other and influenced each other. He dose not get exemptment for gaining a crush on a 16 year old just because I was the only adult he knew at the time. The sexual AU was kept between me and my partner at the time (16-17) since it made Jade uncomfortable. We kept out their characters and only talked about it when we believed Jade was gone out of respect for them. They are getting upset at me for not stopping a AU that me and my partner created. (I also want to note that in this sexual AU all characters used were 18+, including the 16 year old's characters) This 16 year old was also previously groomed by a group of adults normalizing sexual content to them, having a nsfw channel anyone who entered the server could access. (Once again, adults enabling bad behavior for adults) The constant blaming me for having mental illness symptoms too is really fucking angering. Even after I sent you a picture of BPD symptoms and explained what I did that was influenced by mental illness. Like, you hold a whole point against me for switching out during a stressful conversation!!

Not to forget why I personally feel the whole doc was created to hurt me specifically the last time we had a conversation before I blocked you it was in an attempt to make up with you and 2D after you two left me when I was in a trauma state. You pushed me so far that I felt I had to hurt myself just to make it up to you two! And when you two were told about this information you did nothing! You didn't stop what you was doing, you didn't think that it was your faults. No, because "I convinced myself" When you constantly pushed when it was already explained to you that it would be self harm for us.

I find it funny for evidence you used a whole conversation Jade and Sun had when you can even see in that conversation Jade was argumentative with us, even when we did what they asked. And for the whole you never said that others hated us you sure as hell made it feel that way by bringing anyone you could into the conversation. But when we bring you what you want you have nothing to say.

(Funny cause in this screenshot right here we communicated that any amount of comfort from us would be consider self harm) Hey I just found some more screenshots of 2D and Jade trying to guilt trip us!

Mind you, this whole argument happened because I turned off a movie because it was negatively affecting Jade and they forgot that I communicated that I couldn't handle them feeling negative But it's okay since you two were under so much stress that you get to take it out on us, write a whole document to hurt us, and to get upset when you get what you want in the end. Fuck off with this "We're not the ones in the wrong here" bullshit

[humanmorph]

I just view any callout post I see nowadays with at least some suspicion because.well you know how it's been with people framing trans women specifically as guilty of all sorts of things & taking statements wildly out of context or being overly punitive... It's got me thinking back on my teen years on this site where I was not in a but heavily adjacent to a 'community' that had tons of callouts basically all the time & also on issues I'm currently dealing with (moral ocd, or at least something close to it) I can say it's only affected me negatively. It's only ever been a 'man that was WILD' kinda thing bc I did not need to be there even a little but also genuinely. It sucked

#there's something about callout posts as I'm thinking of them that play mostly towards an emotional response #It's like look what they said! & you as the reader should recoil and distance yourself lest you could be implicated #Like the goal there is to ostracize not to minimize harm. #I'm always playing devils advocate with myself bc I'm normal (see above) - #- & made up like 5 'but what about THIS related thing/edge case' arguments immediately buuuut #Not what I'm making the post about. Also I'm at work & today's been honestly fairly productive so let's get back to it. #Rosa rambles #Also I don't know why I was being vague it's not like. Secret. But I was probably 80% following fictionkin people in my teens #all my friends kinned... #I don't know how prevalent bullshit callouts were generally back then but that's the context I know.

[arienai]

I'm feeling salty so I'm just going to say, the problem with "shipping discourse" is that yes fiction does of course affect reality, but instead of talking about actual issues inherent to that, like the use of casual racism in media, people would rather make dumbass callout posts about how an adult drew teenage anime girls kissing and this is ~evil~ or w/e

#Absolutely not turning on reblogs for this LMAO #I'm getting a lot of new followers and a bunch of people have like. 'proship DNI' in their bio or w/e #And I want you all to know where I stand on this so like. Unfollow if that follows you but #For real I got a bigass twitter callout for saying anime girls should hold hands #And I am too old for this bullshit lmao #Unfollow if that bothers you* #Sorry autocorrect got me again

[vivi266]

every day i stray closer to the edge of the "not publically stating a clear opinion on discourse" stance that i generally hold

#the last time was 'hey maybe calling out random trans women over unsubstantiated kink bullshit is bad' #not that i agree with doing callouts in general #but that got me blocked by a nonzero amount of random people and i like being able to reblog popular posts

[toytulini]

not that i want yall to do it to ppl i actually like, Id like yall to stop doing it altogether, but also,

can yall stop doing bullshit transmisogynistic smear and harassment campaigns against ppl i actively dislike and have blocked for other reasons that i refuse to get into in public, lest it spin out of control and turn into a harassment campaign? i am too fucking petty for this shit. if you dont like someone you dont need to make up lies about them and stir a whole shit pot about it, fucking grow up and block their ass and maybe blacklist their url if you cant keep them off your dash and stop making it everyone elses problem. christ alive.

#toy txt post #like i dont want to reblog this post pointing out its bullshit even tho it IS bullshit when im already trying not to platform her posts #bc i DO have legit beef with her but not anything i personally am going to start shit over cos i recognize thats not gonna go well and #its not worth it bc its bc of stupid circular neverending discourse anyway! its just annoying. sorry #stop doing this bc its transmisogynistic and awful and also bc im too much of a petty bitch for you to be acting like this #i am not noble and honorable. i am not the aclu. i do not want these ppls urls on my goddamn blog and its not for the dumbfuck bullshit #reasons you put in your callout post i luckily havent even seen but now its like. great. hope no one realizes ive got her blocked and #thinks its cos of that. it doesnt matter cos no one knows who you have blocked but i have blocked too many ppl for a variety of reasons #for yall to be making shit up. just shut the fuck up. christ
